Namsan Valley finds its source in a modest stream located on the northern slopes of Namsan Mountain in Cheongdo. This charming valley, adorned with rocky cliffs and crystal-clear waters, provides a refreshing respite from the sweltering summer heat. At the entrance to the valley, you'll encounter the Cheongdo Stone Ice Storage, a historical gem and the oldest stone ice storage facility in Korea. Strolling further along the valley, you'll find lines of intriguing rocks, carved with poems, including Chwiam and Ungeumcheon. These natural landmarks served as gathering spots for Seonbi, scholars from the Goryeo and Joseon periods, who came here to revel in the beauty of nature and craft spontaneous poems, fostering a deep appreciation for the arts.
